A fireplace should be cleaned any time an appreciable accumulation (1/8″ or more) of soot and creosote occur. It can be enough to fuel a chimney fire that may damage the chimney and even spread to the roof and home! Furnace flue systems also require cleaning, so do not neglect regular cleaning of those venting systems.
Ideally, before the start of the burning season during the spring/summer or early fall is a great time to get your Chimney Inspection and Chimney Cleaning. Before you think about building a fire or starting up your furnace because the whether has changed, is the time to call us at (571)299-9389.
We strongly recommend once a year cleanings and inspections!

Some fireplace use can produce an incredible amount of soot and creosote during a cleaning. We have been known to have removed nearly two full five gallon buckets of material from one chimney! Removing this material is critical to continued safe use of the fireplace and reduced risk of Chimney Fires that start when this highly combustible material builds up to unsafe levels.
